Food, friends, and training

It was a GREAT WEEKEND! Friday I had 3 great meetings on some opportunities to help our sales grow and my boss called to deliver some praise and encouragmenet on my recent performance. I then went to Denish's house, who I swim with at Master's. His wife is starting a jewlery company and I went to check out some of the peices. What a beautiful and talented family. Check out her stuff at www.pranajewelry.com -- Type in TriGirl for a 20% discount. After visiting with them, I met the girls at Rocco's. BYOB! 5 girls, 2 pizza's, 3 bottles of wine, and thanks to Jennifer's coupon clipping, dinner was $5!

Saturday's workout was long. Met the IM Louisville troops at Lake Ray Hubbard at 630am for an open water swim, 100 mile bike and 8 mile run. It heated up in the afternoon causing us to stop and refill water bottles every 7-10 miles. Our workout ended at 3:30pm. I had an hour to shower and get ready for a hot date! Blake and I went to PF Changs and then saw Inception at North Park. unfortunatly, the 100 mile ride got the better part of me and I fell asleep within the last 15 min of the movie. Ooops.

Sunday, I met two fast, lady athletes at white rock lake for a morning run. Ashley Johnson and Allison Cross. I really enjoy having company for runs, especially the longs ones. This year I have done most of my running solo, so it was a real treat to have them accompany me for part of my 18 miles. I felt fantastic the entire 18 miles. This is very encouraging, especially coming off yesterday's hard workout. Feeling good about Louisville. After the run, I quickly showered, went to church, and got brunch with Blake, Jill and her new man! Now resting up for Rivercities Sprint Tri this weekend. Pretty much training right through the race. Ironman is in 5 weeks! yikes
